After installing Dolphin browser, I got "dolphin Browser" and "Dolphin" on my homepage, they both seem to function the same to me.
Why am I getting two apps (icons) when I only downloaded one app off the play store?
Reboot your device. Problem will be solved. Is your device rooted?
Plz click thanks.

I rebooted my device and still have two icons, yes it is rooted.
The first time I installed the normal version of Dolphin, it also automatically installed the beta version. Or somehow the play store might of put it on your homepage twice.
Maybe one of them is the regular app launcher and the other is the widget google play adds automatically (unless the option is deactivated)
I wondered this as well. I think as the previous poster stated the one which is just 'browser' is a widget which Google play places on the desktop. In the app draw there is only 'Dolphin Browser'

When you install Dolphin it automatically creates a shortcut on home, and other one is shortcut by Google Play. Delete any one, both are same.

browser based google play doesn't see my device, in device google play is fine and i can download apps, but not via the web browser
I've had the same problem in the past couple of days. Normally if I click install in the browser the app is at least downloading on my phone when I unlock it. But now, it doesn't even register. I go on the play store app and have to get it from there.
I'm hoping this is a common problem that google are aware of, and can be fixed pretty soon.

I have been using Songza on my iPhone 4 in the US but now it's not available in Google Play in my region even though it's a free app. Can anyone share the apk or point me to a site that allows me to download it? Thanks.

Use google for searching the APK, just search for "songza apk", the first one to appear is the apk4 .us site, donwload it and try to use it. If it says that you are outside the US, assuming you are rooted, just download Orbot, a Tor's Client. I live in Argentina and like many others, can't use Songza or Pandora, but this little app do the trick. Search it on the Play Store.
Once you launch it for the first time it ask you for rooted permissions, then it ask you for the apps that will go trhough Orbot, click the "Select Apps.." button, wait for the list of apps installed on your phone and then check Songza, go back and when it shows you the Large button press for 2 seconds, it begins to connect to the Tor network, once it goes Green.....ALELLUYA!!!!!
Luanch again Songza and there you go listening for your favorites tunes!!!!
Remember to go through the Options in Orbot for uncheck the "Start with the system" option.
By the way, with that little bastard of Orbot, you can make any app "shows" you on the US, like I said before, I live in Argentina, and besides Songza and Pandora, I use Last.fm, Hulu, Rdio, and so on...
Good luck!
Hi,
I recently made a switch to CM9. I was using an App made for webOS called Zite. I like Zite and want to continue using it. I found app in Google Play. I am trying to install Zite from Google Play. But it shows message that "your device is not compatible with this version". I tried modifying build.prop but there was no impact. Is there a way to install Zite on CM9?
Thanks
Do you have any other android devices? You could try side loading from one of them...
Never mind, I uploaded it here for you since it's a free app. Just use your file explorer to install it!

On android zite does not support tablets. Have you tried to side load it? Try to Google zite.apk the only problem with this method is it won't do updates but you might get it to work until they come out with a tablet version.
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
If you can't get Zite working well for you you might want to look at the app called Google Currents. Even when I was using webos I wasn't a big fan of Zite . Currents works pretty well.
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda app-developers app
I have never used Zite but as others mentioned, Flipboard (side load required), Google Currents (loads fine from market) & Pulse (market loadable) are a few that work perfectly good on TP.
Thanks for responses. I have Flip board, Google currents, APPY Geek and Pulse in addition to Zite. I use all these apps. I almost exclusively use those . I recollect installing all these from play store with cm9 June version. No side loading. But now (with aug version) it won't let me. Even Flip board says app is not compatible, however I have it already installed. My major issue with Flip board is, it only works in portrait mode.
Zite on webOS is beautiful. I am a business user and am one of those who like webOS's simple user interface.

I'm an idiot when it comes to cloud storage. I have a bunch of music and I know it won't fit with the 16gb capacity on my DNA so I was wondering if there is a website or an app that will let me access all of my music from my computer on my phone?

I use BubbleUPnP to stream media from my pc. Works great with pix, music, and video. You need to install the server software on your pc to stream over mobile network.
Win7, media player 11 works great for me. I use MX player as a renderer on my phone. It has the best codec support.
There are several free cloud storage services but I don't know if you can stream to your phone from them

Google music lets you store like 20k songs for free. Also drop box gives you 25 gigs of storage although I think that might be only for verizon.
I use BubbleUPnP too. It is really good and easy to use.

How did you get 25 gigs for dropbox. I only have 3 1/2
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
When I opened drop box on my DNA I had to go through a tutorial and then I got the extra space. Not sure if its a Verizon thing or not.
I'm gonna look for the tutorial. I gained a little space (500mb) for auto upload but didn't see an opportunity for the rest. Will check it out
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I don't know if this would be able to cover all of your needs, but you should check out Bitcasa. It's a new Cloud Storage service and I like it very much. You sign up and start off with 10gb free and you can upgrade to unlimited storage for $10 a month.
I use Bitcasa for my pictures and documents, but I use Spotify for music though... but I still hope this helps! :good:
Yeah I use Google music. Download the uploader from the Google music page and just start uploading your music then you can also redownload it later to all of your devices if you want to or stream it

Try Plex
Plex, app and desktop media server work well. I think the app is $5 but it works not only for music but you can access your movies, pictures, anything you upload to the app you can watch from pretty much anywhere. But for a free alternative, use google music.
I've been using Subsonic for a few years now. I have the Subsonic server installed on my desktop at home which allows me to stream all of my movies and music to my phone or computer. It was pretty easy to setup.

The dna does not have a dropbox promotion associated with it. You probably got it from a Rom which includes a promotion from a different device.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
No it has nothing to do with any roms. When I first installed dropbox on my DNA it had the 25gb bonus once I completed their tutorial. If you Google "HTC DNA dropbox" the first link from dropbox.com has all the details.

Yep, Dropbox 4.0/4+ bonus is not available for Verizon. Some people were able to get it from custom roms. I received a small bonus when i was on a custom rom with my thunderbolt so maybe that is why I cant get the second 4+ (25gig) bonus on my ViperDNA. You might be only able to receive the bonus (w/ custom rom) if you have not received any other sense bonuses in the past.
I My Google music uploaded on my pc stopped working and I get the couldn't connect to Google play. I have tried un installing reinstalling and disabling av as well as sent logs to Google and tried the access code and it still won't work. I have been working with Google for 2 months. So today I got an email and they have forwarded my case to a supervisor because the rep I initially got was horrible and they also credited me 10$ for inconvienece. Which is nice but it's still not working. I have had to transfer music to my laptop and upload which I use only for school so it's a pain in the butt has anyone had this issue and found a fix for it just curious because I don't think Google knows what to do.

Have you tried creating a second gmail/google account and using that for music? Your phone can have several google accounts setup. I have a google account with all my music synced to it; and all of my family put that account on their phone, in addition to their own personal google account. That way they have access to the same music, and we only sync the music from the computer to one account, instead of many accounts.
No my account is fine it's the upload program for the pc that doesn't work. It says it can't connect to the Google play servers so I can't even get into the sign in app...
